Come back  Catalogue

The GHILUX ball valves are shutoff valves type ON-OFF. The opening and closing functions are made by hand, acting on the control spindle of the ball with the handle, or operated with a spanner or screwdriver.
The main characteristics of these valves are the different versions and the reduced dimensions, which have been carefully studied.
